LOL I would but our family been using the one out of the can by Ocean Spray for over 30 years. Now we do make homemade when we host but we get funny looks even though they say ours taste better.
We dump 2 cans of whole cranberries in the juice in a saucepan, We add 2 slices of orange and blend in a 1/2 cup of water and 1 cup of sugar. We stir it well till it nice hot and bubbling. Then we let it cool to just warm and serve it warm.

There's something about a canned shaped tube of cranberry sauce sitting on a plate. It's cheezy and nostalgic. Kind of like the christmas sweater of Thanksgiving.

No canned cranberry sauce? No green bean casserole in cream of mushroom soup? No canned yams with marshmallows on top?

praise be to God! :thumbup1:

Without (the delicious and traditional) canned cranberry sauce, how do I make my 'day after Thanksgiving' turkey, stuffing, and cranberry sauce sandwich???? (With the perfect circular slice of cranberry sauce :))

I make cranberry sauce according to the package directions, except I substitute half the water for red wine. I also add a couple cinnamon sticks and some orange peel zest to it while it cooks. The red wine compliments the cranberries so well, it's heavenly.

Going against tradition can spell doom for those who are not an informed family member. My wife brought wonderfully made "To Order" bread rolls to Thanksgiving one year on my dad's side of the family. The rolls had smoked cheese, sun dried tomatoes, and rosemary on the inside. They were heaven. She should have brought this...because, after all, it is tradition for crying out loud:

She was placed in the stocks before being ostracized.

I like the sound it makes when it comes out of the can.

My mother always makes my grandmother's homemade cranberry sauce recipe, but I insist on having a small can. She thinks I'm crazy. It's a guilty pleasure.

The canned stuff can be brought up to the next level. Mix it with really, really good English orange marmalade. Two parts cranberry sauce to one part marmalade. Yum.
